Definitions

  • AMBs Active magnetic bearings
  • Compact compressors also referred to as compact motor-compressors combine a pressurized, high-speed motor and magnetic bearing system with the compressor in a single, hermetically sealed motor-compressor module.
  • Figure 1 illustrates a cross-sectional view of a conventional compact compressor 100.
  • the conventional compact compressor 100 has a compressor end 102 and motor end 104.
  • a pressure casing 106 hermetically seals the compressor and the motor.
  • active magnetic bearings (AMBs) 108 are used at various locations along the shaft of the compact compressor 100.
  • AMBs may be typically located at the ends of the shaft and, depending on a length of the shaft, at one or more locations between the ends of the shaft.
  • AMBs 108 are inside the pressure casing 106 and thus potentially exposed to harmful contaminants in the process stream including liquids, sediments, acids, and/or other aggressive chemical agents.
  • a housing may be provided around the AMBs 108 to create an isolated environment for the AMBs 108.
  • Such an enclosed bearing is generally known as a "canned" bearing.
  • the housing of a canned bearing also serves to protect the magnetic bearing from damaging external pressures.
  • Conventional cans are often made of a non-magnetic metal. As a result, the magnetic coupling between the stator and the rotor is reduced. Further, using metallic cans may result in eddy current generation in the metallic cans at the interface of the shaft and the stator.
  • Examples of magnetic bearings contained within a housing are described in US2007/0200443 , US2013/0099612 , and US2011/0001377 .
  • the use of a NACE compliant magnetic bearing arrangement, to allow use in corrosive environments, is described in EP1, 967, 286 .
  • a radial magnetic bearing of the invention is defined according to claim 1.
  • Embodiments of the disclosure provide a radial magnetic bearing of a rotating machine.
  • the radial magnetic bearing according to the invention includes an annular housing having a radial outer wall disposed between radially outer ends of two annular axial end plates, a stator portion disposed in the annular housing and an isolation sleeve having a helical arrangement of a plurality of ferromagnetic wires embedded in the isolation sleeve.
  • the isolation sleeve is an annular structure extending axially between the two annular axial end plates, and the isolation sleeve and the annular housing define an isolation cavity therebetween.
  • the radial magnetic bearing also includes an isolation sleeve retainer disposed at radially inner ends of the two annular axial end plates.
  • the isolation sleeve retainer is configured to maintain a position of the isolation sleeve between the two annular axial end plates.
  • the radial magnetic bearing further includes a plurality of laminations disposed adjacent the isolation sleeve and about a shaft of the rotating machine. A gap is defined between the plurality of laminations and the isolation sleeve.
  • Example embodiments of the disclosure may provide an isolation sleeve of a canned radial magnetic bearing.
  • the isolation sleeve may be disposed between a stator portion of the canned radial magnetic bearing and a rotor supported by the canned radial magnetic bearing.
  • the isolation sleeve may include a helical arrangement of a plurality of ferromagnetic wires and a plurality of non-magnetic wires.
  • the plurality of ferromagnetic wires and the plurality of non-magnetic wires may be embedded in one of a thermoplastic, a thermosetting plastic, and a ceramic.
  • the plurality of ferromagnetic wires and the plurality of non-magnetic wires may be arranged in a plurality of radially extending layers.
  • first and second features are formed in direct contact
  • additional features may be formed interposing the first and second features, such that the first and second features may not be in direct contact.
  • exemplary embodiments presented below may be combined in any combination of ways, i.e., any element from one exemplary embodiment may be used in any other exemplary embodiment, without departing from the scope of the disclosure.
  • FIG 2 illustrates a cross-sectional perspective view of an exemplary active magnetic bearing (AMB) 200, according to one or more embodiments disclosed.
  • the AMB 200 may, for example, be a radial magnetic bearing that may be enclosed in the pressure casing 106 of the compact compressor 100 of Figure 1 .
  • the AMB 200 may be supported by mounting brackets 202 that connect the AMB 200 to the inner radial surface of the compact compressor 100.
  • the AMB 200 may support a shaft 204 of the compact compressor 100.
  • Figure 3 illustrates a detailed cross-sectional perspective view of the active magnetic bearing 200 of Figure 2 .
  • a stator portion 206 of the AMB 200 may be housed in a housing 208 that may provide an isolated environment for some or all of the components of the stator portion 206 including, for example, bearing stators, windings, laminations, and/or interconnecting cabling/wires.
  • the housing 208 may be a generally hollow structure having a generally annular shape and may include a radial outer wall 210, the axial ends of which are connected to radially outer ends of two annular axial plates 212 at the respective axial ends of the housing 208.
  • Each of the two annular axial plates 212 may define a central opening 214 for the shaft 204 to extend therethrough.
  • the stator portion 206 may be disposed about the shaft 204 in the housing 208.
  • a plurality of rotor laminations 216 may be disposed between the shaft 204 and the stator portion 206.
  • the plurality of rotor laminations 216 may not extend beyond the two annular axial plates 212.
  • a gap 218 may be present between the outer circumferential surface of the plurality of rotor laminations 216 and the inner circumferential surface of the stator portion 206.
  • the gap 218 may permit relative motion of the shaft 204 in the housing 208 (or alternatively, in the stator portion 206).
  • the magnetic fields produced in the stator portion 206 may traverse the gap 218 to provide the required levitation forces on the shaft 204.
  • the gap 218 may be about 0.5 mm to about 1.00 mm thick and may be formed by, for example, adjusting the inner diameter of the stator portion 206 and/or the outer diameter of the plurality of rotor laminations 216.
  • An isolation sleeve 220 may be disposed in the gap 218 between the plurality of rotor laminations 216 and the stator portion 206.
  • the isolation sleeve 220 may be disposed closer to the stator portion 206 than the plurality of rotor laminations 216.
  • the isolation sleeve 220 may be connected to the housing 208 using bolts, glue, O-rings, or any other conventional techniques.
  • a thin metallic sheath or can (of about 0.2 mm to 1.0 mm in thickness) is used instead of the isolation sleeve 220.
  • the can may be made from a non-magnetic metal such as Monel®, Inconel®, or non-magnetic stainless steels.
  • the isolation sleeve 220 may be retained in the gap 218 using isolation sleeve retainers 222 located at or adjacent the radially inner ends of the two annular axial plates 212.
  • the interface between the isolation sleeve 220 and the isolation sleeve retainers 222 may be sealed using O-rings 224, as illustrated in Figure 4 .
  • Figure 4 illustrates a detailed cross-sectional view of an inner radial region of the stator portion 206 of the AMB 200, as shown encircled in Figure 3 . Also illustrated in Figure 4 is a typical location of one or more sensors 225 within the housing 208. As known in the art, the sensors 225 may be configured to detect the general position of the shaft 204 and send corresponding signals to a controller to maintain the shaft 204 centrally positioned within the AMB 200.
  • an isolation cavity 207 ( Figure 3 ) defined by the housing 208 and the isolation sleeve 220 may be filled with a suitable fluid such as a fluorinated hydrocarbon or silicone-based transformer fluid that provides the required stability, heat transfer, inflammability, and/or chemical compatibility with the various AMB 200 components.
  • the housing 208 may be made from any suitable metal, such as stainless steel.
  • One or both the annular axial plates 212 may be removable and, as such, may facilitate insertion of the stator portion 206. When removable, the annular axial plates 212 may be sealed with an O-ring seal and axially bolted to the radial outer wall 210.
  • transfer tubes 226, 228 may extend from the housing 208 to the pressure casing 106. As shown in Figures 2 and 3 , the transfer tubes 226, 228 may create a sealed passage projecting radially outward from the housing 208 to the outer surface of the pressure casing 106. The ends of the transfer tubes 226,228 may be sealingly engaged with the housing 208 and with respective interfacing flanges 230, 232 located on an outer surface of the pressure casing 106. For example, the transfer tube ends may be sealed using radially oriented, elastomeric O-ring seals and appropriately sized grooves in the transfer tubes. Although, only two transfer tubes 226, 228 are illustrated, it will be apparent that any number of transfer tubes may be included. The transfer tubes 226, 228 may be located at or adjacent the axial ends of the housing 208 or at any location therebetween.
  • One or both the transfer tubes 226, 228 may contain interconnection cables/wires therein.
  • Figures 2 and 3 illustrate the transfer tube 228 containing interconnection cables 234 which may be accessed by the interfacing flange 232.
  • the interconnection cables 234 typically include power and/or sensing wires.
  • Prior art solutions typically have separate isolation schemes for the wires and the stator portion that can lead to extra cost and possible isolation failure at the interface between the stator portion and the wires.
  • the transfertube 228 including the interconnection cables 234 may be located in the lower portion of compact compressor 100 relative to the compressor centerline and the fill/bleed transfer tube 226 may be positioned at an upper vertical position.
  • the transfer tubes 226, 228 may be installed after the compact compressor 100 is assembled and the AMB 200 is assembled therein.
  • the interconnecting cables may first be pulled through the respective transfer tube(s) in the pressure casing 106 and the transfer tube(s) may then be slid over the interconnecting cables and sealed in position.
  • the interconnection cables may then be attached to connectors fixed to the respective interfacing flange(s) and the interfacing flange(s) may then be fastened on the pressure casing 106.
  • the isolation cavity defined by the housing may be evacuated with a vacuum pump and the fluid de-gassed prior to filling the fluid through the fill transfer tube. After doing so, the interfacing flange 230 of the fill transfer tube 226 may be attached.
  • the pressure in the housing 208 may be regulated by one or more pressure regulators, such as the pressure regulator 236.
  • the pressure regulator 236 may be fluidly coupled to the housing 208.
  • the pressure regulator 236 may be an equalizing bellows (for example, a welded metallic bellows) or other similar pressure regulating device. Because of a pre-defined amount of stiffness in the pressure regulator 236, the pressure in the housing 208 may be slightly lower than the pressure outside the housing 208, for example, the pressure in the compact compressor 100.
  • This pressure difference which, for example, may range from 1 to 2 bar, may keep the isolation sleeve 220 positioned firmly against the stator portion 206 and away from the shaft 204, the plurality of rotor laminations 216 and/or other rotor assembly. As a result, the gap 218 may be maintained between the isolation sleeve 220 and the plurality of rotor laminations 216.
  • the structure of the isolation sleeve 220 will now be described with reference to the various views of the isolation sleeve 220 illustrated in Figures 5A, 5B , and 5C .
  • Figure 5A is a cross-sectional perspective view of the isolation sleeve 220, according to one or more exemplary embodiments disclosed.
  • Figure 5B is a perspective view of the isolation sleeve 220, according to one or more exemplary embodiments disclosed.
  • Figure 5C is a partial cross-sectional view of the isolation sleeve 220, according to one or more exemplary embodiments disclosed.
  • the isolation sleeve 220 may be composed of thin wires 238, of a ferromagnetic material, helically wound and embedded in a thin, annular plastic body 240. Such a structure may maximize magnetic coupling between the stator portion 206 and the shaft 204 and, at the same time, may minimize the amount of deleterious eddy currents generated in the isolation sleeve 220.
  • the isolation sleeve 220 may be injection molded with thermoplastic, thermosetting plastic, or a ceramic that may provide the appropriate mechanical strength, stator isolation, and/or chemical compatibility with the process fluids.
  • thermoplastics may include, but are not limited to, polyetherketone (PEK), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), polyphenylene sulphide (PPS), or the like.
  • thermosetting plastics may include, but are not limited to, epoxy, polyesters, or the like.
  • Figure 5C illustrates only two radial layers of wires 238 for the sake of clarity.
  • a plurality of radial layers of the wires 238 may be included in the isolation sleeve 220.
  • the diameter of each wire may be from about 0.05 mm to about 0.09 mm and a thickness of the isolation sleeve 220 may be from about 0.2 to about 1.0 mm.
  • the separation between wires 238 may minimize wire to wire electrical insulation.
  • the wires 238 may be of a ferromagnetic material, such as cobalt, silicon steel or the like.
  • the wires 238 may be pre-coated with a thin layer of insulation to minimize wire to wire electrical leakage. This, in combination with the generally circumferential orientation of the wires 238, may minimize induced eddy current losses in the isolation sleeve 220 that are inherent in prior art canned magnetic bearing configurations.
  • a single wire is differentiated in Figures 5A and 58 to illustrate the generally helical orientation of the wires 238.
  • the helix angle a illustrated in Figure 5C , between a wire 238 and a plane perpendicular to central axis of the isolation sleeve 220 (for example, referred to as a radial plane) may vary between about 10 degrees and about 60 degrees in order to optimize structural strength of the isolation sleeve 220.
  • a suitable tension may be applied to the wires 238 during the winding process to optimize the structural properties of the isolation sleeve 220.
  • the wires 238 at least in a portion of the isolation sleeve 220 adjacent the sensors 225 may be of a non-magnetic material in order to minimize any interference a magnetic material may cause with the operation of the sensors 225.
  • Example non-magnetic materials include carbon, glass, boron fibers, or the like.
  • the diameter of each non-magnetic wire may be from about 0.05 mm to about 0.09 mm.
  • Figure 6 illustrates a cross-sectional view of an exemplary isolation sleeve 600.
  • the isolation sleeve 600 may include a thin, annular plastic body 606 including ferromagnetic powder 602 instead of ferromagnetic wires.
  • the isolation sleeve 600 may include a plurality of non-magnetic wires 604 helically wound in the isolation sleeve 600. Although illustrated only in a portion of the isolation sleeve 600, the plurality of non-magnetic wires 604 may be present throughout the isolation sleeve 600.
  • the plurality of non-magnetic wires 604 may include non-magnetic materials such as carbon, glass, boron fibers, or the like.
  • the ferromagnetic powder 602 may be coated with an electrically insulating material that may provide insulation between individual particles of the ferromagnetic powder 602.
  • the isolation sleeve 600 including the ferromagnetic powder 602 may provide magnetic coupling between the stator portion 206 and the shaft 204, and/or minimize eddy current generation.
  • the plurality of non-magnetic wires 604 may also be arranged in a plurality of radially extending layers. In an example embodiment, a portion of the isolation sleeve 600 adjacent the sensors 225 may not include the ferromagnetic powder 602. As a result, any potential interference the ferromagnetic powder 602 may cause with the operation of the sensors 225 may be minimized.
  • the housing and the transfer tubes may also be used to isolate/protect the stator portion of an axial thrust bearing of the compact compressor and the interconnection cabling thereof.
  • the isolation sleeve may be in the form of a relatively flat, thin, disc placed between the stator portion and the shaft mounted annular thrust disk.
  • Example embodiments disclosed above allow for the protection of the stator components and accompanying wiring. This may allow for the use of standard electrical components because the electrical components would be operating in an isolated environment created by the housing and the isolation sleeve disclosed above.
  • an active magnetic bearing using an isolation sleeve may have a relatively higher load carrying capacity than a prior art active magnetic bearing that uses non-magnetic cans. This is because the isolation sleeve permits a relatively higher amount of magnetic flux to transmit therethrough resulting in a relatively higher load carrying capacity.
  • Prior art active magnetic bearings using non-magnetic cans effectively increase the gap between the stator portion of the bearing and rotor causing a reduced magnetic flux to be transmitted to the rotor.
  • the isolation sleeve results in fairly negligible induced eddy current losses in the isolation sleeve as compared to the substantial losses incurred in typical prior art metallic can protection systems. This translates into more load carrying capacity as well as less demand for bearing cooling.
  • the transfer tubes facilitate the creation of a hermetically isolated volume around the active magnetic bearing components because the transfer tubes can be installed after assembling all of the major components into the pressure casing.
